Make your NTSC, 110 volts TV work in India

10/20/2013

Picture
NTSC TVs cannot accept PAL signal and a 110 volts TV cannot accept 220 volts current - Straight and simple. My uncle carried a Samsung SyncMaster T23A350 from US for me and this post will take you through what I did to make it up and running.

220v to 110v Step down Transformer:
Maxine is a good brand for transformers and you can buy them in any of the electronics stores near you. (I bought mine from Mercy Electronics, Anna Nagar, Chennai). The important parameter to consider is your TV's wattage, although all US TVs are 110v they don't fall under same wattage, My 23 inches, Full HD, LED Samsung required 50 Watts, You can find it in the back panel of your TV or in the manual.  According to the little understanding I have about electronics, Watts should increase with the size of your TV. So if yours is a bigger TV, then please make note of the watts required while purchasing a step down transformer. 

Generally, it is good to go for a transformer which can handle higher wattage, more than what is required for your TV. Although my TV required only 50 watts, I bought a 100 watts transformer. This solves 2 problems, firstly, your transformer will not over heat. Secondly, you can add one more 110v gadget using a multipin (like Cordless Phone or other adapters which requires 5 - 20 watts). 

Cost of 50 watts 110v Maxine transformer was Rs. 290 and 100 watts/110v was Rs. 690 (Oct, 2013)
NTSC to PAL Conversion:
There are two options here, you can go for a video signal converter or buy a DTH connection which can support your TV. When I tried connecting my local Cable with a F type converter, all I got was B/W channels without audio, later when I googled for video converters, they were rather expensive (Rs. 2000+ for the ones with RCA pins). So, I decided to buy a DTH connection and started evaluating service providers in India, (with the help of my FB friends). 

Trust me, not every HD DTH connection will work, even though these are digital signals, they require some hardware/software to do 50hz to 60 hz frame rate conversion. Indian TVs work with 50Hz frame rate whereas US TVs work on 60 Hz. After reading quite a lot from other forums, I shortlisted DISH and Videocon D2H. (I compared Reliance BIG, TATA Sky, Airtel - They don't work, I even spoke to an Airtel Technician, who said, some of his installations in US bought TVs did not work)
 
Videocon D2H seemed to be economic, I booked it in a store nearby and I got it installed by the technician on the same day. So, with all high hopes, we turned on the TV, connecting the setup box with an HDMI cable and to our surprise we got "Mode not supported" error. So we connected the STB and TV with RCA cable and got some B/W imageswith Audio, I tried changing the video resolution and frame rate by navigating in to STB's "Box settings" menu (You might require a password, use '1234') But the error persisted, when we connected the HDMI. 

Videocon's technician contacted his technical support department and assured us that it can be sorted out with a firmware update on the set top box, as promised, he returned the next day with this firmware update in a USB drive. It was all done in ten minutes and we were already enjoying the wonderful picture quality. Thanks to Samsung and Videocon.  Cost of Videocon D2H with HD Set top box, installation and one month free subscription was Rs. 3350.

On the other hand, My uncle opted for DISH TV for his LED 55" 3D LED and it worked like a charm (No S/W updates were required). So, if you are one among the many going through this confusing DTH selection process, be assured, DISH and Videocon will surely work. 

Happy watching! 
Update: 31/7/2014 - My TV stopped working from last week. Have not found the reason yet, it just doesn't get switched on.

Update 21/8/2014 -  I approached Samsung Service Center last week, to my surprise, they quoted Rs. 5500 as service charge to even come and diagnose the problem with my TV. I was told that, all Samsung TV's billed out side India will be charged like this for service. Please note the quote was just to visit and identify the problem, no spares included! :( 

Update: 22/9/2014 - A local electronics guy tried repairing the TV, he said the mains board has got a problem and should be replaced. Unfortunately there was no board available in the market (He quoted around Rs. 4000 for such a replacement and Rs. 500 as labour). They were also not ready to do board level servicing, google search reveals that problem should be with some capacitors. But I should just say that we don't have any qualified technician to repair it. I paid him Rs. 200 for diagnosis. TV has been packed and stored in loft once again! + when I asked him to take my TV for spares, I was offered Rs. 2,000 stating that this Samsung T23A350 is made in CHINA and it is pretty much worthless!

Hi Kiran,

This is the phone no. of the technician who came to my home for Videocon Installation. I suggest you speak to him in English or Tamil, as he will not be knowing Hindi for sure ( I myself don't know Hindi, I'm from Chennai)

Hi Stephen,

You have provided very useful information in this blog. I'm planning to buy a new TV in Canada as they are cheaper here but often get varied feedback from people and finally they say do not take the pain of buying TV here. But right now I'm returning to India and my company is paying for the shipping and thought to revisit this option of taking a TV. So the options are Dish TV and Videocon according to you and do we need a step down transformer when the TV says 110 v ~ 220 v. I have seen Sony TVs which says Voltage upto 220v. All I need is a power adapter for the pin, right? Please let me know if there are specific brands like Sony/Samsung that works or I can choose any brand?

Reply
Stephen
6/4/2014 03:29:02 pm

Hi Praveen,

1. Regarding the TV Brand, I use a Samsung and My uncle uses a LG, so I don't think brand is a constraint, you can get anything that produces good picture.

2. Voltage Converter: Yes, you are right, now many applances support a wide voltage range from 100 to 220v, so you may have to just buy a voltage stabilizer in India and a Universal Adapter (for the 2 Pin to 3 Pin conversion)

3. DTH: Dish & Videocon we have tried and they work, off late one of the reader said US TVs work with TATA Sky also. (Check the comment above yours).

Good Luck in bringing your TV to India!

Regards
Stephen

With your latest update I see your TV stopped working, I assume the Videocon still supports 60Hz and its just your TV issue? Please correct me if I am wrong.

I found one samsung technician who mentioned that he will replace the motherboard for the TV. Motherboard is 5000 and he will charge 1000 or 5000 depending on whether he is fixing unofficially or officially. Although my TV is running better now (by itself) but it still restarts once every 2-3 days.

Hi Bala,

We used Videocon or Dish as other DTH service providers did not support NTSC TVs. Whereas in your case as you already have a video converter I would suggest you to go for any DTH service which is locally strong in quality and service.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing detailed information. So let me share my experience with my new TV.
I purchase LG 42LB6300 in amazon.com and shipped directly to India.TV price is 450$ and 280$ for shipping and import duties (which is better than paying us state tax, extra luggage charges and customs at airport, mainly no hassle of carrying it throughout our journey and handle our customs officer) .
TV was shipped through DFL, packed well no damages.
Good thing will LG is it support up to 240v, so I directly plugged (using universal plug) without need of 220 to 110V converter.
Now only thing is now I have to go for Dish / Videocon DTH or buy a PAL to NTSC converter.

Great site. I bought my TV in 2013. Samsung Smart LED un32eh5300f in the US. When we connected to the stabilizer and then to step down transformer then immediately it started working. We were only using the browser. But now I see that the TV starts and stops by itself. No clue what is happening. Please let me know.

Hi Bobby,
I had purchased a LG 42" TV at this time last year from amazon.com with Bangalore address as my shipping address. They charged me 130$ for shipping (this might vary based on the TV size & DHL is carrier). And 180$ towards import duty deposit which is 40% cost of the TV, they will take extra money at the time of order. After six months I got refund of 50.66$ so actual import duty on my TV is 31%.

They shipped it through DHL, I place order on Sunday by Friday it is Bangalore.. Pretty quick :) .
You can it online and you will receive alerts on your mobile (IND & USA)

Amazon is the best for global shipping and All items are not eligible for global shipping.

Hope above information help us.Happy Purchase :)

There are two things we need to bother when bringing TV from outside india.
1. We can use stepdown converter to suit india voltage.
2. We can use PAL to NTSC convertor if the Settop box does not support NTSC. Some people are saying Videocon and DishTV settop box supports NTSC.

You have bother who do you bring the tv to india without paying extra custom, that is the main thing to worry :-)

Friends, i too went through the painful experience of not getting right picture quality with US bought TV that supports NTSC format only. I initially bought orei PAL - NTSC converter for my Airtel Digital connection which worked perfectly fine for few moths but this converter got problem and stopped working within one year. I later explored from forums (like this one) and came to know about TataSky HD supporting NTSC. TataSky team assured that their set top box supports NTSC format and hence i submitted installation request. The technicians tried their best and surrendered mentioning that it'll not work. After couple of escalations, technical team explored with their senior technical staff and came with different set top box that they normally don't use in regular installations. This specific set top box has model # DS1729TAT and only this one shows 1080i @ 60 Hz options. Other boxes doesn't show 60 Hz option, they show 50 Hz only. It took over 3 hours for technical team to identify right box and setup my TV. I am a happy customer with HD quality picture. I am sure this info will help other fellow friends. Thanks.

@Babu
Both the TV brands will work in India, but you will need the voltage step down converter if you TV does not say that it can work with 220V which is the supply voltage in India.
The PAL/NTSC is not an issue nowadays in the new TVs. But if your TV still does not support it, then get Dish TV set top box and it should work.

I read lot of comments above. I was totally frustrated too when my TV that I bought from USA wasn't working. The easiest way to deal with it is get a dish TV super HD dth. Technician will have to update the HD set up box through a/v cables initially as on hdmi the screen will still show mode not supported. Once the stb is updated by dish TV satellite. You will get HD quality with no more problems. I am thankful to someone who wrote the same advice above. No need to waste money on pal-ntsc converter. Those are BS.

But TV is working perfect with internet connection, I can able to watch Youtube, Netflix etc. Does any one has experience with these kind of issue with Samsung TV? please suggest.

Hi Stephan,

Thank you for the blog and it has immense information

By saying that I would like to ask you another question,

I bought a 55" Samsung 8 series TV from USA does it require a Step-Down transformer and Stabilizer (Both)?

Please clarify.

Thank you.

Best Regards
Gopi

Thanks Stephan for this blog which helped me taking a decision.

I bought a 50 inch TV from US. I am using it with a Step Down Converter which has been working fine so far for the past month and using the applications only like Netflix, Youtube, Prime.

One mistake I did initally was to use a 100W transformer which started smelling a bit within half an hour possibly due to high load. I later took a 500W transformer which is working great.
